A list of questions to ask potential housemates.

Are you a student wanting to share a rental house? From a number of experiences, I've developed the list below. Ask every question with a neutral tone and expression. Most have no wrong answer. Watch the person's face as the lips may lie but the eyes don't. Have a friend sit with you when you interview to also watch the persons responses.

Smoke?

Leave toilet seat up?
